Evidence of Mantle Source Volkanism in the Adriatic region

The broader region of the Adriatic sea is characterised by a sequence of magmatism-related events from the (pre)-Mesozoic through Cenozoic age. The triassic magmatism and jurassic ophiolites formed at the margins of the Adria plate promontory. The cenozoic tectono-magmatic evolution of the central-western Mediterranean produced the migration of an inter-arc basin system and variations in the mode of subduction, and a subsequent cenozoic within-plate volcanism and lithospheric mantle evolution in the same areal.
